We had a difficult time deciding where to stay on our trip to the Yucatan with so many options- beaches, pyramids, interesting villages, haciendas, cenotes, and bigger cities. We decided to stay with Richard and Leena for two nights because the property looked amazing. We wish we had stayed there the whole week! Hacienda Dzibikak is quite simply spectacular. Richard and Leena have restored the property to its past glory with an impressive combination impeccable attention to detail, exquisite decor, and high end luxury. I have travelled a great deal in Mexico, and stayed at several haciendas. Hacienda Dzibikak is without question my favorite. What we enjoyed the most about our stay was the attention that we received from both Richard and Leena. Richard gave us advice on where to go, when to go, what to avoid, etc. With all of the options in the area it is extremely helpful to have someone who knows share ideas. He also was full of interesting stories about the process of restoring their Hacienda. If you want to explore this part of Mexico, with all it has to offer, Richard can help! Leena was just as kind an hepful as Richard. She was very concerned to ensure that we had great food. One of the people in our party is lactose intolerant, and she made absolutely certain that nothing in our food was going to cause a problem. She worked with her cook to prepare two of the best dinners that we have ever had in Mexico (ask her for the Strawberry Shortcake dessert!), and was even nice enough to share her recipes with us. We really enjoyed everything about our stay here. If you want to explore off the beaten path, but do not want to sacrifice the finer things in life, stay here. You will be glad you did.

We had a Fantastic Time at Hacienda Dzibikak. We spent one week with two families with small Kids with plenty of room for all of us. The owners are terrific hosts always responsive to all our needs. There were sure all our requirements were fulfilled. Cook was included in our stay, she prepared very good Traditional Yucatecan Food. Kids had a lot of fun at the pool, the Tree House, Jail, Playground and Tree Swings all over the place and all the spacious gardens where they could play and had a lot of fun. Every room in the property has its own special charm. It is full with books, games, and all you need to entertain. All the rooms are very comfortable and spacious. Each has a fantastic bathroom and huge walk in closets. There are Hammocks by the pool which are fantastic to lounge or have a Nap. Its location is ideal, as it is conveniently located 10-minute drive from Merida’s Airport and Periferico, which allows you to make a day trip to all main tourist attractions, like Beaches, Flamingos, Cenotes, Ruins and of course Merida’s downtown all within a relatively short drive. We have previously stayed at other haciendas that have hotel service. Which make you feel that you are at a hotel. But this stay was different and truly reflects what to live at a Hacienda is like. It is very cozy and has that Home feel. It reflects all the hard work of several years of restoring this place, making it a unique and special place. Would recommend to any Couple, Family or group of friends wishing to experience a Hacienda style getaway. We would definitely consider Hacienda Dzibikak for our next trip to Yucatan. It was a terrific experience!
